Funny Incident in your Life:

I was very fond of tomato sauce. Mom had told me often never to eat cold sauce, as it would harm my voice. One day, my parents went to market for shopping, leaving my brother and me at home. It was our chance to enjoy. I took out the bottle of sauce from the fridge. Not knowing what to do next, I placed the bottle of sauce on gas stove and tried to light it. Unfortunately, we failed. When parents came home, I was excited to get a new mike that my parents bought for me. We all started to rejoice over my singing. Later, when mom went to kitchen, the smell of gas made her realize what we had done. Thank God we all were safe!

What You Hate The Most?

I hate someone screaming at me

Funny Incident in your Life:

I was one and a half year old and my uncle (mama) was carrying me in his arms accompanied with my mother. My mother was busy shopping in a mall when suddenly I screamed at the top of my voice “Bachao” (help). He was so scared that he immediately ran towards his sister (my mom) and handed me over, fearing people would catch him. It happened in Muscat. During those days children were being kidnapped almost every day and being reported in the news. “Bachao” was the first word I had learnt hearing filmi dialogues on TV
